Pond Boss Forums POND CONSTRUCTION Selecting a site About ready to dig, or am I?

Normkopecky and everyone: I plan on a 1 acre pond. I have 8 acres, 5 of which are field. With the way my property is, a 1 acre pond would fit nicely in a corner with a forest surronding it. The excavator said he would take away what ever dirt I dont use after landscaping around the pond. I have not gone over details yet about the layout of the pond, I basicaly was concerned wether or not I could have one or not. After giving him ideas of what I was thinking, he said He could do whatever I wanted. I plan on 14' at the deepest point, and ridges, channels etc. So thats where I am at this point.
